This is what we know for certain surrounding the unfortunate circumstances of Jeremy Hammond's ongoing prosecution.

A time line published only days after Jeremy's arrest suggests that Operation AntiSec was orchestrated by the FBI through the agency of cooperating witness Hector Monsegur; http://goo.gl/H1kWm.

As if this were not unfortunate enough, new evidence suggests that Loretta A. Preska, the federal judge currently presiding over Jeremy's case, has an undisclosed conflict which could potentially influence her decisions regarding Jeremy's trial.

Loretta A. Preska is the Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and a former nominee to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Preska is married to Thomas J. Kavaler, with whom she attended law school.
